Breach Reporting
Reduce Your Data Breach Risk
We Ensure Your Business Is In Compliance
For PROSHRED®, it is our job to ensure your business complies with sensitive information laws. We make sure the information delivered to us from our clients is destroyed on-site, every time. We are continuously looking to improve our process to ensure that our on-site shredding service is the best in the industry, and our clients’ compliance remains intact and their information protected.
As our clients’ information security partner, we also are looking for ways to enhance security in other areas of their business. These services now include hard drive and electronics destruction, on-going business shredding, residential shredding, community events, and Breach Reporting Solutions.
Extend the Security of Your Data with Breach Reporting
Legislation regarding data privacy is increasingly strict, and the procedures needed to remain compliant when facing data breaches are intricate. Breach Reporting assures that your business remains protected from hefty fines and other penalties that can result from improper reporting to authorities. With a single call, you can accurately file all necessary reports, notify affected individuals, and avoid missing any requirements.
Reduce Risk with the Readiness Program
The opportunities for a data breach to occur range from hackers to human error. The Readiness Program will enable you to uncover and correct your risk areas. It’s simple:
- Take the online self-assessment at your own pace.
- Receive a report detailing your risk areas
- Implement policies and best practices
- Receive a Certificate of Completion and ID Stay Safe Seal
Be ready with CSR Breach Reporting Service
Should a data breach occur, simply call the CSR Breach Reporting Hotline. A team of IAPP certified professionals will take it from there:
- Gather incident details from you
- Accurately complete and file reports
- File notices as needed to authorities
- Handle the task of notifying affected individuals
Remember the types of Personally Identifiable Information (PII) breached can include DEIN numbers, Bank account numbers, and other Corporate data. As well as, data you collect from your clients, for example, credit card numbers and social security numbers.

I could not have made a better decision. They are always timely and secure and, most importantly for a nonprofit, are incredibly well priced. I used to put off cleaning out my locked file cabinet due to the amount of time I would spend sitting by the shredder. With Proshred, I can ensure that all of our constituent's sensitive information is treated with care and security, and I don't even have to think twice about it. Thank you, Proshred! read less

It is easy to build a repore with the drivers at Proshred. Nick usually services our office and is a tremendous and friendly worker. They are 2-3 times quicker than our previous company and have proved to be reliable, efficient, and all around excellent. If you haven't made a switch to Proshred for your documents shredding, I suggest you do so. read less
